  • China Expands Bond and Stock Market Connect Schemes to Brazil, Adding to Global Links
    April 23, 2026, 7:15 PM EDT. China has launched a pioneering bond-market connect scheme with Brazil, its first link among emerging markets, according to Chinese media. These market 'connect' schemes let investors bypass permits and capital controls, facilitating cross-border trading. China now operates at least five such 'connects' across three continents. The Hong Kong exchange remains the largest conduit, established in 2014 for stocks and extended to bonds in 2017, with daily turnover hitting record highs in 2024. Meanwhile, the Shanghai-Singapore ETF scheme, launched in 2023, supports Chinese investment in the ASEAN bloc via cross-listing of assets. This expansion to Brazil signals China's increasing efforts to integrate offshore capital markets globally and boost bilateral financial ties.
